The room was underground. The first room that was assigned to me had a gap between the door and the wall: the light was entering from the corridor and the door was not properly closing. Furthermore, it was just in front of the elevator and the noise was unstandable. I was given a different room, however this was probably even...

Dear DanielaDaniQ-
Thank you for your review!!! I am disappointed to hear that you were not able to enjoy your stay with us. We were fully committed through out your stay so unfortunately the front desk was not able to move your room to an upper floor. We do apologize and I hope you will give us another opportunity to...

Room was efficient, small and clean. This is not a grand hotel, but if you are not spending a lot of time in your room it's perfect. Great location. We were in town for a family wedding. We could walk to Chinatown, soho, union sq, the Bowery and the flatiron district. If you drive into town ask the hotel to...

This was my second stay at this hotel. I first found it in 2013, when it was The Gem. And the experience was so good that I came back with my friends. Great price for a excelent basic hotel experience. The room accommodated the 3 of us comfortably. The room and bathroom are new with no carpet (thank goodness!). The...

Thank you so much review!!! I am delighted to hear that you had such a great experience at our hotel. I will definitely share your comments with the team and we look forward in hosting your stay in future.

A friend told me about the Gatsby and since I was looking for a new place to stay, I decided to book in. I had read that some of the rooms are in the basement, so before checking in, I called and asked if I could not be put in a basement room. The clerk who answered was extremely friendly...

The location is ideal for awesome restaurants, cafes, and bars plus shopping, sightseeing, and easy access to the subway. I hesitate to post this great...

I loved our stay for 2 nights! After a rough 10 hr flight from Hawaii we were able to check in at noon. Peter was kind to offer suggestions to kill some time but we were too tired to explore this massive city. We waited in the tiny lobby for an available room and watched as Peter greeted and interacted...

Thank you for review!!!!! Your comments will be shared with the staff. We look forward in hosting your stay with us again.

Really good property, well priced, friendly staff. Really impeccably clean rooms. Small with few amenities - you get what you pay for.
But...oh my god this place is noisy. The walls are paper thin, lots of hard surfaces, hard close doors. E Houston St sirens, drinkers on the way home.... Id recommend you stay here, but bring earplugs.

Dear Tom-
Thank you for taking the time out of your day to leave us a review. My apologies for the noise you encountered through out your stay. We are located on a very busy street which is hard to avoid sometimes and of course the noise through out the hotel itself I apologize as well. I am happy to...

I have stayed at this hotel several times. Rooms were recently remodeled and look great! Very comfortable. Yes, the rooms are small...it is NYC. This hotel is between the Lower East Side, SoHo and East Village neighborhoods. Have eaten at many great restaurants within walking distance of the hotel. Close to the subway to get to the rest of the...

I am delighted to hear you came back after the renovations to stay with us. I am happy to hear we were also able to accommodate your stay this time around again. We hope to be able to host another stay of yours and thank you for the review. Please feel free to contact me anytime.

Staff was nice and helpful. No frills. Clean. Free Wi-fi was a bonus. Great location in busy hot spot. Walking distance to lots of nightlife and just a block or so away from a Whole Foods. Great for budget-minded travelers.

Booked this through Hotels Tonight, they actually placed us here after one of their sister properties ran out of rooms. Its a small average hotel. I was debating between rating it as a 2 or a 3 star since the room on the 2nd floor smelled incredibly bad of smoked meats the entire time, especially when the AC unit was...
